The boxer was told that the trial, titled Cruelty Towers, involved going inside rooms in the tower to collect seven stars. However, he would not be the only guest checking in, he would be joined by a host of jungle critters including, snakes, spiders and a crocodile.

David entered the first room and was unfazed by the ostrich that occupied the reception area. He quickly removed the lightbulb and got the first star which prompted critters to fall.

He moved behind the reception desk to the pigeon holes and found the second star. Next up was one of the bedrooms which contained 12 snakes. He found the next star in the bedside cabinet.

Moving into the next room, David was greeted by a crocodile who was laying on the bed. He had to remove one star from the light which plunged the room into darkness.

As he hunted for the second star he said: "What's the bet its under its head?"

He slowly lifted the pillow and found the star. Confidently he stroked the crocodile and said: "He's not too bad," but then added: "If he'd started to move about I would have pooped myself."

In the next room there were more than 50 spiders but he still found the next star. As he made his way to the final room he said, "I'm thinking you've saved the best until last". As he opened the door he was greeted by offal and flies.

The roof of the room was edging down making the space smaller and he failed to collect the seventh star.

"That was disgusting," he said afterwards. "I did my best, a lot of losers say that. Definitely by far the worst room I've been in and I've been in some crappy rooms in my time. I regard that as a big juicy loss, I didn't think there was anything that this jungle could throw at me that I couldn't do but how wrong was I?"
